NEW YORK : Libya in the U.N. Dock
The United Nations may slap sanctions on Libya this week for failing to produce two security agents accused of blowing up Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland in 1988. The British, Americans and French are preparing a resolution calling on governments to prohibit all flights to Libya, stop all arms sales, and reduce the number of diplomats in Tripoli.
While there may be some resistance, American officials hope the resolution can win a strong majority in the Security Council.
Libyan leader Col. Moammar Kadafi says he has already launched his own investigation into the guilt or innocence of the pair.
